I guess you mean an XML Schema instead of XSLT, but no there is no schema for the Shopify API.
A WSDL is also not available as it's not a SOAP web service, instead it's a more lightweight RESTful approach.

The API should be pretty straightforward to follow and implement manually, a lot of examples for the structure of the XML (or JSON) can be found in the api docs:
http://api.shopify.com

If you want to use tools to auto-generate bindings in your language (e.g. Axis2 for Java) then look for something that support REST based web services.

Hope that helps!

Specifically, it's Rails' ActiveResource, which is worth mentioning since there are ActiveResource clients for many programming languages.
